If it feels like armour in your bike kit then the law demands it is actually proper, protective armour. Here's how to tell how effective your impact protection is...
Wanted to get a lighter but still protective jacket for some summer riding and this is absolutely spot on. It’s very comfortable on and not one I’m itching to take off soon as I stop. Vents do some work, zips and buttons feel solid. True to sizing. Very happy with both John Doe and SPORTSBIKESHOP.
This is my 3 rd John Doe shirt
Excellent fit cool looking very dependable and well made
I can’t fault this brand
Can be worn winter or summer which I do
I've got 3 pairs of John Doe riding jeans and the shirt is just as good quality I had no reservations about buying this brand , I wasn't disappointed !
Not having tested it to the extreme by sliding down the road, can't say 100% about it's effectiveness, but AAA rated with level 2 amour, should do the job!
Very comfortable to wear on a warm day and layer it up if a bit cooler, but not cold wet weather wear. The fit is spot on for me, long enough on the sleeve and body and doesn't ride up on the bike, and in my opinion looks good! It's fine off the bike too. Would definitely recommend, and couldn't find it cheaper anywhere else.
I would say this is the most comfortable item of clothing I've ever worn. In terms of appearance it's understated insomuch that it's not showing off in some vein attempt to enhance your psychological self image. Its more of a summer jacket than a winter shirt. The fabric is stretchy whilst the zippers and studs are of sublime quality. If you like quality and comfort whilst blending with the environment this is for you. If on the other hand you're still playing cock of the roost, look elsewhere.
Amazing summer jacket, extremely airy and comfy. Lightweight doesn't even feel or look like a motorcycle jacket. Can't fault it.
Bought this shirt for those swelteringly hot days when a leather jacket is just too much. Thankfully I haven't had to test it, but the abrasaion protection looks very good. You do have to buy the should and elbow pads seperately, but they're very sturdy.
In terms of keeping you cool this is great - shirt is well ventilated but can be adjusted for a slightly colder evening.
The shirt looks genuinely good without the protection inserts - no one would guess it's a riding shirt off the bike. On the bike it's for warm weather only but feels comfortable and obviously looks good.
Sizing is as expected.
4 stars as for the price, protection should come included.
Bought this shirt for warmer weather riding and so glad I did. Exactly what I've been looking for, it's light and really comfortable to wear and with the aramid fibre you know that you have the right protection should the unthinkable happen. The all round quality is superb and the sizing is spot on. I'm 6ft, 175lbs and 41" chest and the Large fits me perfectly. Bought this with the 20% off John Doe products which I think is an absolute bargain at that price for a shirt of this quality and a must have if you want to look and feel cool during the summer.
